North Florida Run for BBQ
#1



Riding buddy Nemo and I made this ride couple months back. We started at the north end of the Dame Point Bridge in Jacksonville. A memorial park is there to pay tribute to El Faro, a ship that was lost at sea after leaving the port here. All hands perished.

From this point we headed east and then north on SR 105 and A1A to the Kingsley Plantation on Ft. George Island. Built around 1797, it was owned by Zephania Kingsley and now part of the Timucuan Historical and Ecological Preserve. The last 2.5 miles to the site is graded dirt and limestone road with excellent views of salt marshes so prevalent in this area. The road is like a tunnel cut through the semi-tropical vegetation. Deer, otters, raccoons and armadillos are common sights.
